RE: ZFS and DMA read error

not really clearing the drive you are aiming for, it is to write to every sector. If you have a failed sector (which you do), writing to it will force the drive firmware to remap the sector. As far as I know, most drives will not remap an unreadable sector until it is written to. /Daniel Eriksson

finishes without checksum errors and without any ATA-related errors the drive is probably in good enough condition to keep using, but watch out for more ATA errors. If the drive is dying it won't be long before it starts to generate more ATA errors. /Daniel Eriksson

. Google hasn't been much help, and I thought I'd ask here before I dug in to the sourcecode.

depending on what controller is used? For example would there be any performance difference (transfer speed and/or system resource usage) between ataraid on a HPT374-based card (such as the Highpoint RocketRAID 454) and one of the new Promise cards (which we have really good drivers for afaik).
